On December 13th and 14th 2023, we have the pleasure to invite you to our Annual Meeting, to be hosted by our brand new FBI Toulouse Node at the Centre de Biologie Intégrative of the Université Toulouse 3 – Paul Sabatier.

We will be happy to celebrate yet another year of achievements and developments in bioimaging with all the members of the community.

This year, the Annual Meeting will focus on “Multiscale mechanobiology of cells and cell systems“, a topic specially selected for being one of Toulouse node’s expertise.

Mechanobiology aims to apply biophysical approaches to measure and perturb forces in complex physiological systems, and to develop in vitro systems including different types of organoids, enabling the controlled manipulation of cells and tissues and the measurement of mechanical forces to study cell mechanics and morphogenesis. 

This “mechanobiology” theme is including (i) how cells generate and transmit forces, (ii) the impact of forces on cell/tissue dynamics, (iii) the impact of extrinsic forces on cells and tissues, and (iv) the development of new tools for manipulating and measuring forces in cells and tissues in a controlled, non-invasive way.

We invite the France-BioImaging Community to present their mechanobiology-related projects during the second day of the Annual Meeting around a dedicated session with selected talks. We strongly encourage you to submit an abstract for a talk or a poster presentation during your registration!

The winner of the best talk and the best poster presentation will win their registration fees for one 2024 microscopy related event of their choice!

Core facilities will also have an opportunity to present a poster.

We look forward to meeting you there!
